Curators Picks of the Week
Is the 90’s making a comeback?
2020 was full of surprises. The biggest music shifts that we watched this past year included plenty of revivals from the 70’s, 80's and even the 90’s. Music creators combed old albums for what they use to admire and seemed to fall in love all over again with electronic synths, pop melodies, R&B vocals and plenty of spaciously wet vocals.
Here’s our Curators picks for this last week in 2020.
